The Randomness – My Life 02032014

I sat down to write tonight and my mind wasn’t centered on anything in particular. So without being too random (or just a bit random), I’ve been thinking about a few things:

1) My birthday is in August and I really want to have a party!! In New York City. I decided that a great deejay, great music, great vibes and being surrounded by great friends and family would really make me happy! If you know me, you know that I can dance and it’s one of my favorite, most fun things to do. So I’m about to start putting that together. Yass!!

2) Oh, I went to a Super Bowl party at a bar in Manhattan last night. (I didn’t meet any guys or discover anything really JUICY to write about. Sorry!) Most of all, I got to spend time with one of my really good friends. She’s a doll and we always have a lot of laughs together. Last night was no exception.

3) What else? I’ve been thinking about these tax lease transactions I’m analyzing at work (I realized last Friday morning during my commute that I started holding my breath thinking about it), but I’ll spare you the details on that.

7) And I’ve never done interracial dating. I read this post on Noni Ayana’s blog the other day about white women’s fantasies about black men, and I felt confirmation, again, that the energy of a strong black man is something that I cannot imagine my life without although I am aware that sometimes what you want shows up in different packaging than you expect. (There was that one time I considered maybe going out with a Chinese guy – uh huh- but he blew it.)

9) Back to numbers 6 & 7, there’s someone waiting in the wings. He’s a train electrician. (ha!!) Good vibes so far.

10) Since I came up with nine random thoughts, I may as well round the list out to 10. HMM…. Oh, very important —- I found a new personal trainer. Yayyy!! I’m meeting with him this Thursday for an assessment!! I’m ready to get it poppin.

My birthday is in July (I don’t usually do anything huge, but I think I want to do something that scares me this year).

I’m playing with the idea of writing a sorta, quasi snapshot memoir lol of my teen years.

I’m not supposed to be eating sugar right now (self-imposed) but took my mom out for her bday and had one of the BEST bread puddings ever (at Famous Dave’s). It was so worth it.

Oh…and I think you should be open to interracial dating (not saying that you’re not, and I get what you mean about Black men…but yes, just open. You never know :))

I'm a writer daylighting as a banker! I started this blog as a single woman in my 30s, and while it has blossomed to include conversations on spirituality and travel, the basic premise is still relationships. I like exploring love relationships (they're fascinating) and the idea that we take ourselves wherever we go (from relationship to relationship, city to city, country to country, etc.) So self assessment is always necessary for growth. And you know if I'm writing about relationships (romantic and otherwise), topics also include dating, lust, the single life, getting ready to be ready (for whatever kind of relationship you envision), etc.
Thanks for joining me on this journey. If we're doing it right, expansion is ongoing. We never stop. This blog evolves, as I do. But -- I can only write from a woman's perspective, for us, and for those who love us.
